FORCE OF NATURE – THE DRY 2

Five female colleagues with tumultuous relationships stomp off into the forest on a team-building weekend but only four come out. Alice has vanished and she happens to be an informant for the feds (enter Eric Bana as Det Aaron Falk) who are investigating her employer for fraud and money laundering. Is she just missing? Is she dead? What happened? Who’s telling the truth? Det Faulk and his offsider have their work cut out for them. SPOILER ALERT! With frequent flashbacks, there’s also a serial killer from 40 years ago and Falk’s own mother coming undone in the same forest, thrown into the mix. It all feels a bit rushed. The cinematography makes the lush forest, grand waterfalls, and stunning mountain ranges the stars of the show, with filming taking place across three visually spectacular areas of Victoria. Everything else is just the supporting cast.
